Empty Room

空っぽの部屋

The boxes are out and every step echoes — no drums at all, and the most reverberant room on the record.

Original

段ボールが 三つ

それで 全部だった

思ってたより

ずっと 少ない

 

歩くと 響く

こんな音 したっけ

同じ部屋なのに

知らない部屋みたい

 

まだ 私の部屋

今夜までは

明日になれば

誰かの部屋

 

Empty room

声が 返ってくる

返ってくるだけ

広い わけじゃない

Empty room

何も ないだけ

 

家具の あった場所が

少し 色が 違う

そこに 何が あったか

私しか 知らない

 

明日 来る人は

まっさらだと 思う

それで いいと 思う

それが いいと 思う

 

まだ 私の部屋

今夜までは

明日になれば

誰かの部屋

 

Empty room

声が 返ってくる

返ってくるだけ

広い わけじゃない

Empty room

何も ないだけ

 

住んでた 証拠が

どこにも ない

それでも 二年

ここに いた

 

Empty room

声が 返ってくる

返ってくるだけ

広い わけじゃない

Empty room

何も ないだけ

English translation

Three cardboard boxes

and that was everything

far fewer

than I'd thought

 

My steps echo now

did it always sound like this

the same room

but it feels like one I don't know

 

Still my room

until tonight

and come tomorrow

someone else's

 

Empty room

my voice comes back

it only comes back

it isn't that it's wide

Empty room

there's just nothing in it

 

Where the furniture stood

the wall is a shade off

what used to be there

only I know

 

Whoever comes tomorrow

will think it's brand new

and I think that's fine

I think that's better

 

Still my room

until tonight

and come tomorrow

someone else's

 

Empty room

my voice comes back

it only comes back

it isn't that it's wide

Empty room

there's just nothing in it

 

No proof I lived here

anywhere at all

and still, two years

I was here

 

Empty room

my voice comes back

it only comes back

it isn't that it's wide

Empty room

there's just nothing in it
